We returned to a frequent Tower Hamlets halt, the Cranbrook Community Centre, to help prepare for a charity party. Fairy lights needed hanging, the kitchen had to be prepared, chairs set out and others stacked away, and balloons had to be blown up and hung.

As it turned out, the biggest task was to untangle the fairy lights, before we could hang them up with blu-tack. They'd been left in a box so had decided to tangle themselves in a seemingly impenetrable maze resembling something from ancient Crete.

Eventually, the lights were unscrambled and hung up, the other tasks completed and it was party-time!
